You can check the settings to see if it is selecting the quickest, or shortest route. When I use my GPS, if its set to ‘quickest’ it will always try to use major routes like motorways etc. When set to ‘shortest’ […]

Interesting to hear him mention being involved in the aborted sessions for a Scott Walker album produced by Brian Eno & Daniel Lanois.

garyt wrote a new post, Floyd release Animals Remix taster 3 weeks, 5 days ago
The 2018 remix version of Dogs from Pink Floyd’s Animals album has been released to streaming sites. I’ve listened to it once, and it perhaps sounds a bit less ‘muddy’ than the original.

It doesn’t sound like a radical ‘reimagining’ like the Giles Martin Sgt Pepper from a few years ago, but the version on Spotify of the new Old oddly restates the a cappella intro at the end, instead of just […]

The recent RSD vinyl edition of the acoustic versions of songs from ‘Steve McQueen’ by Paddy McAloon sounds bloody marvellous.
One of the tracks I use for auditioning gear is ‘Farmer in the City’ by Scott Walker […] -

One of my favourite Genesis tracks. I believe Foxtrot & Selling England were the peak of their powers as a composing & performing group. I’d be interested to hear what you think about SEBTP.

that’s the dilemma they created for themselves in insisting that all the 2019 candidates signed a pledge supporting the ‘oven ready deal’ Johnson ‘won’. They are all tainted by their (continual) support for a proven liar.

The hope would be that any incoming Tory leader, this side of a GE, would realise most of the cabinet are, at best, incompetent shysters, and clear the lot out. Most are, after all, Johnson loyalists and have […]

I really enjoyed the latest playlist, and skipped past only 1 or 2 (I have no time at all for Shaun Ryder) which is a pretty good average for me with a Spotify playlist. The Fuchsia track was really enjoyable, so […]

I first saw TDC in Belfast’s Empire Music Hall, just after Casanova, but before THAT single. There were maybe a couple of dozen in the audience. A few months later, after THAT single, they were back in the same […]

That’s an album I’ve been playing a lot recently. Some belters on there; I especially like ‘Eye of the Needle’, interesting coming from the son of a bishop.

The first time I visited relatives in Australia (1998) I bought a single by The Whitlams, (Melbourne), and was pleasantly surprised to find a version of Your Daddy’s Car on the ‘b’ side. So at least somebody had […]
